I wrote about this 14 inch wide World War I 3rd Liberty Loan award in my Hot Finds newsletter. When I was writing about it the bidding was at $200 and it had not reached the reserve yet. Well I don’t know if mentioning it in the Hot Finds was the trick but now the listing is at $1k with just a few hours to go.
For Valiant Service 3rd Liberty Loan 1918 by the President of the United States
i’m surprised it didn’t bring more… you’re right it should be in a museum… a beautiful and rare piece

$2142 final winning bid. Something like this should be in a museum.
